5GD-F

LED Indication - Discrete Overview

The Bivar Inc. 5GD-F is a single-color through-hole LED indicator with a 5mm T-1 3/4 package and diffused lens. It emits green light at a peak wavelength of 568 nm with an intensity of 25 mcd. The component features a 40-degree viewing angle, a forward voltage of 2.2 V, and operates at a forward current of 20 mA. It utilizes a flanged design for secure panel mounting.

LED Indication - Discrete Feature Summary

• Diffused lens provides a uniform light distribution with a 40-degree viewing angle
• Flanged body design facilitates secure panel mount installation
• Single-color green emission optimized for visual status indication

LED Indication - Discrete Applications

• Panel-mounted equipment status indicators
• Control board power state visualization
• Industrial machinery operational signaling

LED Indication - Discrete Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version as the 5GD-F may be subject to discontinuation or replacement by newer variants such as the MPC5GTWX.X-CC series. Confirm mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings against the official Bivar documentation prior to integration to ensure compatibility with existing panel cutouts and drive circuits.

LED Indication - Discrete Selection Notes

Select this component when a diffused green indicator with a flanged mounting style is required. The 5mm through-hole format suits standard PCB layouts, while the 40-degree beam width offers focused visibility compared to wider-angle alternatives. Ensure the 2.2V forward voltage aligns with the system's logic levels or current limiting requirements.

LED Indication - Discrete Part Context

This part belongs to Bivar’s line of single-color LED circuit board and panel indicators. It represents a standard through-hole solution designed for reliable visual feedback in electronic assemblies. The product family emphasizes durable construction and consistent optical performance for industrial and commercial applications.

LED Indication - Discrete Replacement Considerations

Consult Bivar documentation for potential substitutes like the MPC5GTWX.X-CC series if the 5GD-F is discontinued. Verify that any replacement maintains the same 5mm diameter, flanged configuration, and green spectral output to preserve mechanical and optical compatibility.
